This is the latest release from Enon and it's every bit as magical as their last kick-ass album, "High Society". This is band that just knows how to write and record really catchy electro-pop-rock-trash that merits listen upon listen. If you liked High Society you'll love this just as much. It follows the same varied performances, never dull, always catchy, loaded with hooks and uncompromising vocals...especially from Toko who takes a bit more of the mic on this one. I saw these guys recently at the ATP festival here in England and they rocked it hard and (...). Get this, you will not be disapointed.

2 1/2

Enon is an indie band you actually want to appreciate. Their chameleon-like, blank slate, track-by-track approach puts them something akin to the underground Ween, with subtler, though intact humor. But they over-try on so much of their material. This album is full of those kind of tracks- cool ideas that do not nearly effectively gel enough. Hearing a memorably unique standout track like "Daughter in the House of Fools", the disposable nature of most tracks is even more obvious.

Not sure there is anything else that needs to be said. Everything about this CD is fantastic.

if yur thinking of this go for it. sum people prefer their earlier stuff but some people always do.

you'd be stoked if you got this for chanukah.
